I saw Jason perform this song this past weekend in New Jersey. He opened with this song acoustic and instantly the words captivated me because the song is so easy to relate to. To me this song is about how a person sees good things happening to the people around them but feel these good things are not happening to them whether its in love, luck, career or just overall happiness. "Somehow the sun shines upon you while i struggle to get mine" - I related this verse to happiness and how it seems so easy for some people to be happy and so hard for others to feel the same way although everyone has the ability to be happy. I think this song also relates to being lonely and waiting for the right person to come along which he finds in the end of the song. The Ray of Sunshine seems to be symbolic of falling in love, finding someone. Such powerful lyrics.
